Here are some dead projects I've identified. I'm suggesting that we
remove them. What's active is active. Everything else is a distraction.
The number in parentheses is how long the project is inactive (approx).
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/desktop/research/ (6 years).
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/pr/gwn/ (3 years, and GWN is just dead).
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/pr/gmn/ (2 years, and GMN is also dead).
RepoSuperMan (a subproject of QA, nice idea, but likely dead).
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/releng/installer/ (1 year, but abandoned).
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/security/kernel.xml (2 years, dead).
What do you think?
Paweł

what exactly do you mean by "remove them" ? `cvs rm -f` in the cvs
tree ? i dont think that's correct. if a project is dead/orphaned,
then add a marker to the index.xml for it so it shows prominently when
people visit the page.

Yeah, that's what I meant initially.

Okay, could you give some more details about the marker?

Okay. How about the marker that Mike suggested?

i didnt have anything in particular in mind. just your typical colored/bold
block at the top saying "this project is orphaned due to lack of developers at
this time".
perhaps doc teams have something sitting in the xsl that'd help

Done. I've re-used the <warn> from
